Emilie Wapnick
“We all need a sense of meaning in our lives. The feeling that we're doing good in the world--that we're making a difference in some way--is essential.

Not everything we do needs to evoke a deep sense of meaning. That would be exhausting!

Multipotentialites are usually involved in a number of different projects. Some of these are naturally more meaningful than others (just as some are more profitable than others).

What matters isn't that everything we do is deeply meaningful, but that we have enough overall meaning to make us feel good about how we're spending our time on this earth.”
Emilie Wapnick

A.B. Shepherd
“We are all visitors to this time, this place. We are just passing through. Our purpose here is to observe, to learn, to grow, to love…and then we return home.” - Australian Aboriginal Proverb”
A.B. Shepherd, Lifeboat

William Tedford
“It never occurs to us that looking for the definition, origin, and nature of consciousness
within the content of consciousness itself is the equivalent of searching
a movie for a view of the camera man.”
William Tedford

Carrie Fisher
“If my life wasn't funny it would just be true, and that is unacceptable.”
Carrie Fisher

“I've stopped preoccupying myself with the idea that my happiness is dependent on whatever might lie ahead in the future (in this case, buying a house). Contentment within my home is something I can find now - but only if I allow myself to actually appreciate the act of real living.

Contentment within your home is something you can find now, not in a far-off home-owning future.”
Medina Grillo, Home Sweet Rented Home: Transform Your Home Without Losing Your Deposit
